 POPE LEO XIV TO UNDERGO LUNG SURGERY Pope Leo XIV has announced that he will undergo surgery in the coming days to remove a lump on his lung, which was detected at a very early stage. During his weekly Angelus address in St Peter’s Square on Sunday, the 71-year-old pontiff told the crowd that a lung nodule had been discovered during recent medical checks and was highly localised. The statement by the Vatican press office adds that Doctors had recommended an operation to remove it, and that the procedure had already been planned.  It further confirms that his recovery was expected to take about one week. Born in Chicago, Leo became the first American pope in May 2025, following the death of his Argentine predecessor, Pope Francis, on 21 April 2025. He was elected on 8 May 2025 to lead the world’s 1.4 billion Catholics.

Mancity Demolish Real Madrid To Reach Champions League Final

May 17, 2023

The myth of Real Madrid invisibility in the UEFA champions league has been brought to an end by England Champion, Manchester City. The Manchester side put four pass the Spanish side in the 4-goal thriller.

Bernardo Silva scored twice in a hugely impressive win over Real Madrid at Etihad Stadium, which sees that the blue side of Manchester booking a place in the final of the Europe most treasured tournament.

Both of Silva’s goals came in a stunning first-half display by the hosts before Eder Militao’s own goal and a strike by substitute Julian Alvarez late on wrapped a dominant 4-0 win on the night and a 5-1 victory on aggregate.

City, who are on the verge of winning the Premier League and are in the FA Cup final, will play Inter Milan in the final in Istanbul on 10 June as they look to win the Champions League for the first time.

Pep Guardiola’s side outclassed the 14-times winners from the outset and only two stunning Thibaut Courtois saves stopped Erling Haaland from giving the hosts an early lead.

But City could not be kept out for long and Silva got his first of the night with a whipped near-post finish that gave Courtois no chance.

The Portugal midfielder added a second just before the break, looping a header over David Alaba and into the back of the net.

That goal came after Toni Kroos hit the bar with a shot from distance, but in truth Real rarely threatened as City produced one of their best displays in Europe in the first 45 minutes.

Courtois denied Haaland again in the closing stages when he pushed the striker’s shot onto the bar but City added a third when Manuel Akanji’s flicked header from Kevin de Bruyne’s free-kick was diverted into his own net by Militao, before Alvarez completed the rout with a neat finish.
